The battle for the airport reached the same intensity as at the end of September - beginning of October at the peak of hostilities.

It is reported on his page in the social network "Facebook" editor-in-chief Censor.NET Yuri Butusov.

"The enemy is engaged in an intensive fire from tanks and artillery primarily for Supervisory and corrective posts Ukrainian parts at the airport, and also has a new terminal to cause the collapse.

This morning in the artillery preparation, the enemy before the attack occurred further destruction of the tower of management Donetsk airport - collapsed remaining second and third floors. Also collapsed the walls of the second floor in the new terminal.

After this attack went infantry. Using the fall of the wall, the enemy penetrated to the second floor of the new terminal. Attacks were also made from the basement, on the first and third floors. Enemy tactics assault groups. Assault units of the enemy fully equipped citizens of Russia. Units up to platoon are well-equipped and armed with flamethrowers "bumblebee" and RPG, closer to our defensive line, produce intense fire from close range, and fixed. After that draw the fire on the detected positions of our troops.

A fierce melee at distances of 50-100 meters with large forces of infantry lasts all day today, and continues in these minutes.

Despite a massive fire from all weapons on the new terminal, and the fierce attack of assault units of the enemy, our soldiers in the terminal fight with dignity, and their positions do not pass. No one is going to retreat. The fighting spirit of our guys is very high.

Today 2 Ukrainian hero fell a heroic death in the battle for the airport. 7 soldiers were wounded.

High efficiency show our artillery spotters that all day competently manage the artillery fire. Grouping Ukrainian artillery in the airport area is greatly enhanced. The massive firing of all guns and multiple rocket launcher systems fire all day. All applications for the open fire are performed in the shortest possible time. It is important to note that artillery does not blindly barrage area. All applications are made only on the basis of visual observation, the shooting results are observed, the fire is zeroing, is adjusted. Such competent organization of the work of the artillery under martial charters has high accuracy and efficiency.

Today, our shoes were covered accumulation tanks and armored vehicles of the enemy who were firing point-blank at the new terminal.

As a result of successful actions of our artillery, the enemy is forced to shorten the distance of the fight and "snuggle up" to our positions, so as not to get under cover.

In the airport area of the Ukrainian command concentrated enough mechanized and airborne parts, artillery support, to adequately respond to any change in the situation. Fresh battalion tactical group one of our mechanized brigades, one from the mouth of which is fully equipped soldiers of the volunteer battalions, spoiling for a fight. Request to the command to send them to the rotation and the strengthening of our fighters in the new terminal are heard from all of our units in the area. Mass manifestation of the heroism of our soldiers who are currently fighting the brotherhood never ceases to surprise with its scale.

The army literally took courage, because humiliating mode unilateral ceasefire only by Ukrainian troops in the airport area has finally ended. The army needs adequate command and control. During the senseless slumber army loses its quality - but the real danger the troops motivated and disciplined.

The only way to stop the attacks on new terminal is to conduct a military operation near the airport, and finally to release from the Russian troops surrounding the airport. As soon as Russian troops will be eliminated from comfortable positions that allow them to control the road to the airport, and take the attack to the terminal from different sides, massive storms terminal will stop.

To perform the Minsk agreement and to provide power to the ceasefire, to resist uncontrolled gangs provocateurs, trying to break the truce reached between the heads of Ukraine, Russia and the European Union - that under such ideological justification must be held in the airport area active steps to maintain peace.

Otherwise melee will last long, will be the fire, and will still be victims. Only a decisive change in the tactical situation around the airport will help to ensure the safety of Ukrainian troops in the terminal," said Butusov.
